free ride
« on: January 02, 2008, 11:57:09 PM »
I was busy in the garage today.  I got my e-locker installed on bambi (looks sweet) and the exhaust installed in the Beast!  I can acutally run it w/o hearing protection!  Now i'm lookig for someone to help put the hood on (old steel weighs like 50# and is too big for one person to handle).  Any takers?  who ever helps gets the first ride!

I just woke up (my lazy ass is on vacation) but it would only take me about 20min to get ready and get over there.  Just let me know when.

Went well.  I drove about 2-3 miles (reg, that sound right) w/ Reg following (just incase) and burned at least a gallon or two of gas :D
